First pass at 10:00, shakedown, slightly higher tire pressure, good burnout, mild rpm launch to make sure car feels good, safe, and goes into gear.
Let clutch cool for 30 minutes. Decide on next launch rpm/tire pressure/ clutch release based on previous pass.
Like to go from 1.8 to high 1.6 and then go for 1.5x's.
I usually can feel out the driver and watch the launch and help correct for the next pass pretty well if you are game I'll help out while the Capt. beats on my car. lol
The et will come, need a gameplan!

I say we come up with a game plan like:
First pass at 10:00, shakedown, slightly higher tire pressure, good burnout, mild rpm launch to make sure car feels good, safe, and goes into gear.
Let clutch cool for 30 minutes. Decide on next launch rpm/tire pressure/ clutch release based on previous pass.
